Red Sox: All-Star team of managers who also played for the franchise

I have managed the Boston Red Sox. You have managed the Red Sox. We usually do it from our perch in front of the TV or in the stands. We know more than the manager and certainly would have brought in the right pitcher and not the wrong pitcher. Unlike the field boss sitting in the dugout, we have the advantage of hindsight.

The Red Sox have had 47 managers in their 120 seasons with Ron Roenicke being victim number 48 if a season starts. Some were around just for one game such as Rudy York in 1959.
